What is an Accredited Professional Video Producer?

An Accredited Professional Video Producer is a video producer, who doesn't just claim to be a "professional" but earns that title by successfully completing the rigorous AIPP accreditation process.

Accreditation is designed to give you, the consumer, confidence that your Professional Video Producer is a proven, experienced, technically capable, professional practitioner who complies with all legal business requirements, has appropriate insurance and who is willing to agree to the mandatory Code of Professional Practice and to the requirement to continually improve their video production skills by committing to continue their professional development.

To become accredited, a Professional Video Producer has to:

Demonstrate that they have been practicing for a minimum of 2 years.

Demonstrate that they have satisfied clients and suppliers by providing written references.

Demonstrate that they comply with all legal, ethical and moral business requirements to practice as a professional in Australia.

Demonstrate that their video production skills are of a "Professional Standard".

Agree to have a portfolio of their work, assessed by a panel of experienced AIPP assessors.

Achieve the required portfolio assessment standard.

Agree to continue their professional development through the AIPP CPD program, maintaining up to date skills and business practices each year.

The AIPP continually monitors its ACCC certified accreditation requirements to ensure that the standard for accredited membership is appropriate for the profession of video production in 2017 and beyond.
